Naming a Unit Specifying a Hot Spare through 3BM 1 On the main 3BM screen, in the list of Available Drives, highlight the drive you want to use. 2 Type s to specify that the selected drive will be the hot spare. You'll see the words "Hot Spare" appear next to the drive in the Available Drives list. Figure 54. Hot Spare Indicated If a hot spare is already enabled, you can disable it by pressing s again. 3 If you are finished making changes in 3BM, press F8 to save the changes and exit. Note: If the drive you designated as a spare is not large enough to replace a failed drive in a fault-tolerant unit, or if there is not a fault-tolerant unit for the spare to support, 3BM will notify you. Naming a Unit Units can be given unique names to more easily identify them. A unit can be assigned a name when it is created. It can also be named or renamed at a later time. To name or rename a unit through 3DM 1 Make sure the appropriate controller is selected in the drop-down list at the right of the menu bar. 2 Choose Management > Controller Settings from the menu bar in 3DM. 3 In the Unit Names section of the Controller Settings page, locate the unit for which you want to change the name. www.3ware.com 115
